Re: [Condor-users] removing phantom jobs

["Smithies, Russell" <Russell.Smithies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I found a solution that works but is very slow :-(
Looks like condor_rm won't work on large clusters so I have a Perl script doing a condor_rm on each of the 90,000 individually.
Taking a long time but should complete overnight.
